Inferno Squad & Han Solo Join Star Wars: Shatterpoint Soon
April 11, 2024 by brennon
Atomic Mass Games has been showcasing a couple of additional pre-orders for Star Wars: Shatterpoint. You can dive into some properly rebellious activities with these two sets featuring 40mm Sci-Fi miniatures for Inferno Squad, Han Solo and Chewbacca.
Today The Rebellion Dies - Squad Pack // Star Wars: Shatterpoint
We start with Today The Rebellion Dies Squad Pack which contains miniatures for the characters from Star Wars: Battlefront II. Inferno Squad actually had quite a good story, starting out as fearsome Empire soldiers before (spoilers) changing sides and fighting for the Rebellion when the veil is lifted from their eyes.
Inferno Squad // Star Wars: Shatterpoint
The set comes with miniatures for Iden Versio, Gideon Hask and Del Meeko allowing you to get into some tense fights as they war with their allegiance to The Empire. The miniatures look great and really match up with the video game versions. The set also comes with two standard members of Inferno Squad, your Imperial Special Forces, for hunting down your enemies and rooting them out.

This is a fantastic set and it's great to see that the characters have been added into Shatterpoint. You can actually get these miniatures for Star Wars: Legion if you prefer, battling at a slightly smaller scale.
Today The Rebellion Dies // Star Wars: Shatterpoint
It will be great to see more of these lesser-known collections of characters from different video games and more coming to Star Wars: Shatterpoint. It seems like the perfect game to drop them into due to its more "Saturday Morning Cartoon" feel.
Han Solo & Chewbacca!
As well as Inferno Squad, you can also get your hands on the Real Quiet Like Squad Pack.
Real Quiet Like Squad Pack // Star Wars: Shatterpoint
This set comes with the glorious scoundrel of the Rebel Alliance, Han Solo. He is presented alongside Chewbacca who looks ace. This gives you a Solo, Chewbacca and some Rebel Commandos who have been tasked with taking down shield generators or battling to stick a spanner in the works of The Empire.
Han Solo & Chewbacca // Star Wars: Shatterpoint
Han Solo looks fine but I think Chewbacca is the star of the show here. I really like his pose and the fact he has a torn-off droid arm in one hand. I bet that Bowcaster packs a proper punch. The set also comes with a pair of Rebel Commandos.

I feel like the painting of these particular miniatures might be a little flat (although better than I could do!). It might also just be that because the miniatures are bigger you need to add a bit more detail to the flatter portions of the sculpt.
Real Quiet Like // Star Wars: Shatterpoint
All of these miniatures are available for you to pre-order right now with a release coming up in June. Let me know what you think of the sculpts in the comments and whether or not these characters will be making it into your next Shatterpoint team!
Do you have a favourite of the two Squad Packs?

They should have made a Star Trek version and call it “Shattner Point!”
LOL
make it so 😉
oh the puns would write themselves and we could see picard kick kirk’s posterior 🙂
make him go where no captain has gone before.
I feel the Han pack is a bit of a lazy one. Han is in his normal gear but is teamed up with 2 Commando’s in Endor gear, on the same grey bases as Han and Chewie, who’s on a jungle base. At least try and make it consistant.
I prefer the Inferno Squad, although the Han likeness is very good.
No plans to buy either as I still have the core box and two other squads to paint… and I need to find time to play the game too.
Painting unlikely for a while as I just expanded my Mythic Battles: Pantheon collection significantly and they are my priority for the moment.
